If climate was such an emergency, why didn’t Obambi declare that in 8 years in office?
Warning about an Emergency Act “precedent” is fatuous. The Social Democrats are now determined to make their next accession to power to be the final change of parties and will use every tool to hand which will facilitate that goal. I expect that to happen in 2020 because they got away with a lot of vote fraud in 2016 while almost openly doing it. They won’t even be bashful about voting all the illegals and adding votes at every precinct they control as well as using the traditional methods. This will happen unless Trump can and will force positive voter ID, one day voting in person at the designated polling places, and no absentee ballots.
When the SDs get the Presidency and one House again none of that will matter any more. They feel deeply that they were cheated of their accession to total power in 2016 and will not let it slip from their hands again.
What will poor New York Times columnist Bret Stephens do when laws no longer exist, and individuals decide that power comes out of the barrel of a gun?
So is one of the other troskyites, Johna Goldberg he is already on the list.
These morons were always globalist interlopers of real conservatives, and are enemies of the Republic.
I think it is no secret that when the Democrats get back in power, they will go all out to destroy the country as we know it. We are headed to another civil war but to many are just acceptable of the continuing new normal of post sh*t America.
They already did. It was called the Paris Accord, which was a Treaty that Obama signed Unilaterally.
Marxist Socalism will not leave freedom alone, so freedom will have to wipe out Marxist Socalism.
Hasnt Obama already done that?
I would hate to see the reaction if a Democrat President invoked emergency powers to ban cars or guns. It would be immediate civil war.
I don't think it was wise for Congress to delegate that authority to Presidents, but it did. So it is perfectly reasonable for him to do use that power.
That would be different from an extra-Constitutional climate change power grab that is not authorized by a statute.
Yeah, and what counter measures will be taken upon said declaration?
Immediately cease all non-essential vehicle use?
All air travel?
Liquidate all existing herds of cattle with the biggest freaking 21-day BBQ you ever saw?
Shut down all non-nuclear power plants?
Pass laws preventing volcanic eruptions? And forest fires?
Brett Stephens is a very reasonable sounding dou***bag.
Bret, man made climate change is a hoax. The illegal invasion at the border is reality.
Go suck swamp water, Bret.

So hes saying a Democrat President might declare a national emergency because of cow farts?
“Climate change” the hoax is all about approaching confiscatory taxation to fuel whatever “fundamental transformation” to the economy floats the democrat party’s boat at the time. It’s a deliberate scam to destroy an economy; that is the only aspect of “climate change” that amounts to a national emergency. Firearm confiscation, as pelosi threatens via future dem declaration of national emergency, is an ill-disguised scam to declare a hot war on half of the nation’s population, and will, as yet another dem Frankenstein, inevitably involve radically increasing taxes. Trump’s declaration does neither.
We’ll be laughing when the demockkkrat POTUS will have to fight off lawsuits from republican governors...
Many demokkkrats in Congress were part of the coup attempt against a duly elected POTUS.
Is he unaware that national emergencies are declared by presidents for various reasons? Heck, a dozen of Barkey’s are still in force. One I know of goes back to Carter, the other worst president. Trump haters are too quick to pounce and look more like fools as a result.
